Journal Article
Emary, C., Dyson, A., Ryu, S., Sim, H.-S., & Kataoka, M. (2016). Phonon emission and arrival times of electrons from a single-electron source. Physical Review B, 93(3), Article ARTN 035436. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.93.035436

In recent charge-pump experiments, single electrons are injected into quantum Hall edge channels at energies significantly above the Fermi level. We consider here the relaxation of these hot edge-channel electrons through longitudinal-optical-phonon...
